We respectfully ask for your tax deductible financial assistance to help with the flow in our actions. Chris Ferris & Dancers presents dance that is brought to you with the vibrancy of unique and quirky action weaving an event that puts you squarely into the present tense. There is nothing like live performance. Be with us through our leaps, falls, bounces, and slices. We offer sweat, heavy breathing, and an eyeful of action that gets you dancing within yourself. We offer live original music made specifically with each dance.
Chris Ferris & Dancers aims to contribute to the culture of dance by creating an acute awareness of movement and its many possibilities so that you can view your everyday life from another dimension. Movement is a large communicator. We have been speaking this language of limbs, torso, mind, heart, and soul in New York City for over 30 years. Be a part of this tradition by making it possible for us to pay artists and meet the costs of theater rental, rehearsal space, technical staff, and publicity. |

Chris Ferris & Dancers is premiering Reassembled at Dixon Place’s Fast Forward on April 22, 2026.
Reassembled is a suite of two works making up a 30 min. work. Choreographer: Chris Ferris - Music: Loren Kiyoshi Dempster Dancers: Mackenzie Bingham, Isabella Deem, Kayla Laufer, and Caleb Patterson
Just InSight pulls both performers and audience members into a kinetic experience of focus and observation. Each dancer will have a focus that expands and contracts between the audience, another performer, and their own inner world. They connect with patterns of independent action that unpredictably pull together in cooperative group activity. Dancers throw each other, avoid each other, while painting molecular bodies in a chemical reaction. Movement varies from body parts that meander to razor sharp eye focus.
The Speed of Stopping is about a continuum that is altered abruptly, softly, or is unstoppable. In a world where people are falling with intention, propelling themselves through space with laxity, or pounding the floor and air; these options bring about different choices for being strong. These strengths have a ripple effect into the world. Energetic waves of intention create conflict that is destructive verses supportive. This dance explores how we live in this world of extreme differences but appreciate one another or walk away. Boundaries are created and alliances are made in this nontheatrical abstract form of pure dance. This dance works solos against duets to assemble into a trio.
Please consider a donation to help cover the costs of paying talented performers, plus the cost of costumes, rehearsal rentals and documentation. |
